Are you glad to see snow return? and do you have that feeling that we’re going to have a rather nasty March to make up for the snow drought? Is March getting a jump on that whole “in like a lion” thing?

It looks as though our friends to the south are rather ill prepaired and ill equiped to deal with this. Our municipal and private contractors have the experience and heavy equipment to get 20-36 inches of snow removed and roads salted in a day or two. Let’s send them our plows and crews to help out.

We remember a few relatively snowless winters before we moved South.
It seemed that you paid for it in March or even early April.
Florida has been no picnic this year. January was cold and February is starting out the same…January was something like the 4th coldest January on record. No snow, but cold days and cold nights. Don’t try to escape Albany cold in FL this year.

I miss the look of freshly fallen snow, but not the work and inconvenience that goes with removing it. But the ground and aquifers need the water, and that need trumps my preference to not have to shovel. So bring on the snow.

What happen to the winters when I was kid? And thats when the city of Albany did not really remove the snow. The good old days. Hey if its going to be this colds out it might as well be pretty out there.

#17: One inch of rain equals 15 inches of dry powder snow or five inches of very wet snow, with an accepted average of ten inches.
With the 18.5 inches of rain Albany had June-August, that would be just under 15.5 feet of snow total.

Is it me? Or does no one remember shoveling/blowing snow practically everday after the ice-storm last winter? It was not fun. Knock on wood that we have a light winter, because it won’t be like this every year.

You know what I hate is a wetherman that can’t get the forcast right.I mean rhats what you went to school for. I not saying you have to be perfect just try and get close.The forcast has changed several times in the past three days. What ever happened to the accu check weather you know the one that they would ck to show off how accurate they were the day before. Ih ya that did not last long. I miss it. It was like a punch line to a joke.

“Ready, set, snow!”
“It’s already coming down three hours south in the Big Apple. Lightly, but that means we’re in for it in another four hours or so.”
“This is the time to call in sick or dead to work or just admit that you don’t want to risk getting into an accident driving in the slushy muck.”
